The Woes of Fantasy Football

[Fappin Raptor]

First week of the playoffs my team puts up the second most points, but sadly it was against the team with the most points. :facepalm: Now I get to sit and watch my team put up the most points for the next two weeks while some bum team wins my money.

I'm still alive in two other leagues, but there is no money involved in them. :neuer:

Buddy of mine lost his playoff game by 1 point because of Brandon Lloyd's fumble recovery touchdown. I lost my last game because the Texans D got ass raped and their kicker couldn't manage 2 field goals either.

 

[BigBucs]

U chose to start the Texans D vs Tom? U did it to yourself.

Championship game playing for $1000 motherfuckaaaaaaaaaas!!!!! wooooo!

 

[BigBucs]

Im in too, wish I could have made in both my leagues but Ill take the one for the most money. I cash out either way.

I fucked up this year after winning 2 lg last year. Changed my draft strategy and it but me in the ass. Usually I go Rb Rb wr but this year I went qb Rb Rb/wr. Fuck tht.

Funny thing is went with QB in first rounds this year and I am in the finals in both leagues....each case different.

It's a strange game sometimes.

I lost to Brink in the VSN Keeper league because he had Danny Woodhead get 22 points while Steven Ridley got 0.3. Never thought that'd be the reason I'd lose.

I am going to the Super Bowl in my non-money league but lost out by 10 points in the semi's of my high stakes league over the weekend. It literally came down to Big Ben needing to throw a TD on their last drive. If he had done it, I would have won. Instead he throws a pick and my opponent had the Dallas kicker, who kicks a game winning FG. Ben's stat line wasn't that bad for the game but I got a goose egg out of Lawrence Tynes (highest points K in the league) and Rodgers threw all 3 TD's to Jones. Had a single one went to Cobb I would have won.

Question for you guys. Who should I start Cecil Shorts vs. NE or Danny Amendola vs. TB. I'm leaning toward Amendola.

Not sure why that is so funny to you, some of the most competitive leagues out there do not have money associated with them. Having your buddies talk shit over a trophy for a year is pretty motivating.

Agreed. I won't spend more than what we did for the VSN league. I do have more fun trash talking the whole year with co-workers or in one of my leagues where we all draft at the commish's house.

Ammendola, our secondary is the worst in league history.

So this is the bad beat thread?

I finished the season (9-5) with 1672.36 points on the season (119.5/game), the most in the league by 97.08 points. I also finished with 1602.12 (114.44/game) points against, the most in the league by a whopping 115.26 points. Lost in the first round because R. Wayne, R. White, B. Brown failed to show up. Worst part is I was starting Pitta over Scheffler until the last second (would have won).

At least I can get my money back if I win the 3rd place game against my roommate this week. By the way, he was the #1 seed at 10-4 with 1466.72 (104.77/game, 6th PA) for and 1364.78 (97.48/game, 11th PA) against. Also interesting, he won his last game by .06 points which made him the top seed instead of missing the playoffs entirely.

Fantasy football for yeah. Sad thing is I can't imagine ever having a better year than I just did injury/draft/pickups-wise.

:yep:

Last year in one of my leagues, instead of money, we were playing for a nice little beer mug/trophy.

Flex Option......Cruz or Garcon

Our league is $15 but its not the money I cared about.

Leafs tale of Woe this year: After week 8 was tied for first in the league. After week 12 was out of a playoff spot :smh: no waiver wire pickups were saving my ass this year after getting owned by fairly specific injuries.
